Marking as invalid (won't fix).
First, this is not a problem concerning e2fsprogs. Should have been
filed in "ntp", "sysv-rc" or "util-linux". Please also file issues with
your local politicians, because actually the best way to fix this would
be to stop that twice-a-year-time-change insanity, seriously.
It is not possible to run ntpdate before fsck, because networking can
only be enabled after fsck.
I am not redirecting the bug because there is no good way to fix your
issue. If you were not running XP you would set your CMOS clock to UTC,
problem solved. But if your CMOS is set to local time, including
temporary political time shifts, there is no flag in CMOS telling the
system that time correction has been applied (or telling in which time
zone the CMOS clock is). Maybe hwclock could try to implement some
clever, optional and not-enabled-by-default-unless-you-dual-boot-windows
heuristics to guess whether the time should be considered summer or
winter (and then there is one hour in the year where you just can't
know), but it is not worth the extra complexity and problems in my
opinion.
